How to make repashy fruit fly medium. This video provides a way of making an overly nutritious superfly version. If you want it more like Repashy Superfly simply:
- Add Less Nutrition and nutritious Supplements (mixed greens, spirulina, potatoe, multi vitamins etc)
- Add more Methyl Paraben, Orange Food Colouring, Malic Acid, sugar and Rosehips/hibiscus & Calendula herbal tea
I propose that Superfly contains minimal nutrition based on: 1. Scientific research tells us that 2 grams of nutrient supplements is enough for two cultures
2. The mix is bright orange and silky, not thick and green
3. It contains a load of dillutant powder which serve as bulking agents i.e. guar gum, to bulk up the product so the maximum profit can be made.
The reason why superfly is respected is the speedy time it takes to make flies. This can be achieved by adding malic acid powder to the mixture and making the mix the least nutritious it can possibly be so that the acid will react with the yeast which will start the fermentation quicker which in turn will make the flies reproduce quicker. The more nutritious the media is, the more time that the fermentation will take to start and thus the longer time it will take for the flies to reproduce. Superfly is therefore misleading, and probably has the least nutritious flies of all medias. We will hope that one day Repashy will invest in testing to prove us wrong
